Food Surveillance Program

Under the food surveillance programme of CFS, samples of different foods are taken for monthly analysis and verification of compliance. Pesticide residues are one of the parameters for testing. You can find CFS’s Food Surveillance Programme in the link below. As shown in the result, CFS has often found unsatisfactory samples with pesticide residuals that exceed the legal limit or are prohibited.
